Hey, you coming up to Plattekill this weekend. Should I get a room at the Valk? Timmay hurt his wrist at Reading and John is out with a broken foot/ribs and whatnot - I'm not sure yet if whether Timmy will be racing.
Let me know if you plan to come up. By the way Reading was awesome, always fun when you get to launch out of the woods and jump a car.

my shoulder still hurts like hell but i can't stand being off the bike any longer. i think i'll mostly be freeriding but i will probably as well.
Timmy, how is you wrist feeling? see you at platty!
John, what happened, broken ribs?!? hope you feel better soon! did you ever find those papers?

I just looked into the cost of a chainsaw . . . damn those things are expensive. I think I will be bringing up some wood from school, all the stuff at platty will be wet anyway
Sean: you need to camp, that’s where all the fun’s at. Nothing beats staring into a fire till the wee hours in the morning.
Timmy: you in for this weekend?
